Burkey, when I researched this EyeSpy I tried to think of every possible scenario of why a person may not get points with this promotion. I spoke to both MyPoints reps and garden.com reps and one of my many questions was in fact if you did not receive this email solicitation would you still be eligible. We were advised that the promotion will be honoured even if the person did not receive the email. However even though it is garden.com's policy to honour the promotion nothing automatically will happen to your MyPoints account, it has to be processed manually if you were not a recipient of this email. Call 800/466-8142 for manual processing.
I have also put a call in to see whether this policy has since changed.
